Shore Cliff Fantasy Drawing, Sketched With Sharpie Pen.

I did this drawing while waiting for the car to be repaired. I didn't have any resource materials like a picture in a magazine or any old photographs so I started with a vague idea and then went from there. It began with the idea of a stair leading down to the beach. I drew it first in pencil and made a few corrections then started with the sharpie. There are some places where I was experimenting with the sharpie by holding it at a low angle so less of the felt contacted the paper which gave a thinner line, which I used in the distant sea and the clouds.

Drawing of Shore Cliff sketched with a Sharpie.

I am mostly happy with it but in retrospect I wonder if using dots on the beach was as effective as it could have been if I had just left it white or used some kind of hashing approach.
